SN-OMG

The kids are home from school and full of questions about when we can make pancakes, or why we can't watch a movie. (I guess I haven't made the whole "electricity" thing clear to them).

Thank goodness for generous friends with power, showers, and internets.

Here's a brief photo essay.

Here's breakfast

Here's the Volvo (thank you Swedish engineers, it's fine)

Here's the back yard.

And to be honest, it wasn't that bad for us. Many many towns are still at 100% without power.

I have SO many posts I'm just itching to write, like reviews of two months worth of the Fall Book Club picks, the exciting books I'm reading in November, what I read in October including the I Dig Reading Challenge, and an update on my middle grade book club which is SO AWESOME.

I've been thinking about you ever since the snow, Kat! Happy that you're okay (yay for Volvos!), and hope your power's back by now. (I thought four days without power after Hurricane Irene was bad, but at least it was warm then.)

Oh my goodness... I don't know HOW you're surviving! I think I'd lose my mind without all of the everyday comforts I take for granted. You're a stronger woman than I! Here's to hoping everything is back to normal for you soon!
